Paying for the Past: My true life crime story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781500902278)

Geoff Green wrote the first draft of Paying for the Past two decades ago. His true crime adventure has been life changing, taking a decade to go through the courts. A diary he kept at the time, along with media and public interest, inspired him to finish the book. Geoff left school at fourteen and took a dozen jobs before heading back to education and a first class honours degree in osteopathic medicine. He brushed up his writing skills, published research and articles in peer reviewed journals and completed two novels, The Sand Hide and Cold Friends. Geoff works as an osteopath and lives in the Sussex village of Steyning with his wife Carol, a sculptor. Together they have walked some of the greatest treks in the world including, the Inca Trail in Peru, jungle hikes in The Amazon basin, The Grand Canyon and the Great wall of China. Geoff grew up with folk music, skiffle and rock and roll. The Dices, his first band, formed around 1957, entertained punters in pubs, clubs and dance halls. He sang with other bands at the Shepherds Bush and Chiswick Empires before joining pop group, Peter and the Wolves, in 1962. Between working and writing, Geoff loves to paint, walk, read, eat out and watch a good film.
